Regular readers are already up to speed on the Obama National Labor Relations Board's attempt to punish Boeing for opening a new production line in Right to Work South Carolina - and the National Right to Work Foundation's efforts to help Boeing employees. Writing in The Wall Street Journal, Arthur Laffer and Stephen Moore explain why the NLRB's actions are so pernicious:

The Obama administration's National Labor Relations Board filed a complaint last month against Boeing to block production of the company's 787 Dreamliner at a new assembly plant in South Carolina—a "right to-work" state with a law against compulsory union membership. If the NLRB has its way, Dreamliner assembly will return to Washington, a union-shop state, along with more than 1,000 jobs.

The NLRB's action, which Boeing will challenge at a hearing next month, is a big deal. It's the first time a federal agency has intervened to tell an American company where it can and cannot operate a plant within the U.S. It lays the foundation of a regulatory wall with one express purpose: to prevent the direct competition of right-to-work states with union-shop states. Why, as South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley recently asked on these pages, should Washington have any more right to these jobs than South Carolina?

The National Right to Work Foundation is offering free legal assistance to South Carolina workers affected by this complaint. If you work at Boeing's Charleston Dreamliner plant, we strongly encourage you to contact us today.
